    The 5 piece was bugged anyway. They probably just fixed it by adjusting the tool tip.

    I'm not understanding why 'not in patch notes' is such an issue. I like to read the patch notes myself, but it's a general idea.

    Guess I'm used to games that give very broad, very bland patch notes, if they give
    any at all.

    Still makes no sense to me to feel 'insulted' or 'lied to'.

    Ruze is a veteran of the PC Beta, lived through the year one drought, survived the buy-to-play conversion, and has stepped foot in the hells known as Craglorn. He mained a nightlbade when nightblades weren't good, and has never worn a robe. He converted from PC during the console betas, and hasn't regretted it a moment since.

    He'd rank ESO:TU (in it's current state) a 4.8 out of 5, loving the game almost entirely.

    This is an multiplayer game. I should be able to log in, join a dungeon, join a battleground, queue for a dolmen or world boss or delve, teleport in, play for 20 minutes, and not worry about getting kicked, failing to join, having perfect voice coms, or being unable to complete content because someone's lagging behind. Group Finder and matchmaking is broken. Take a note from Destiny and build a system that allows from drop-in/drop-out functionality and quick play.

    Actually 21 is better than the 21% it was. Hundings increased WEAPON DAMAGE, the number you see in your character sheet. 21 at all times is going to be better than 21% if its that now. like my weapon damage is 160 with 2h at purple, 21% is less than 21 with that.

    Can anyone confirm in game that this set is adding 21 weapon damage? I never bothered crafting it because I always heard it was broke.

    21 raw weapon damage is better than 21%. @demonlkojipub19_ESO is correct, this is not a nerf, it's a slight buff.

    Please take some lessons in math , its helpful.

    Average weapon damage builds have 150-180.

    21% of 160 = 33,6 weapon damage.

    33,6 is 60% more damage of 21.

    It's probably still broken. They've tried to fix it what, twice now?
    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    testet Hundings Rage yesterday, BEFORE the patch, and found out, that der Weapondamage-Gain was only aplied to stamina-weapons. (Not to destruction stuff :( ) But i only tested it with destruction stuff and two weapons.
    And it was a procentual gain.

    Looking forward to test it today again^^ Maybe crafting it wasn't total worthless to me now.

    he's actually correct, it wasn't even working before.

    I tested the damage compared with the siphoning strikes ability that reduces 22% the weapon dmg. So when you use a weapon ability the damage with the set + siphoning strikes toggled on should be = damage without the set and sipho toggled off, but it isn t. Dmg of the set it's really poor, it add only +16 dmg per hit when i use flying blade so i think it's an useless set.

    Can someone print screen the tooltip please. Does it say increases weapon damage? Or did it just change the value on the tooltip to 21? So increases weapon damage by 21 when using weapon abilities?

    For all the piling on this guy for his math, have you considered he's comparing 2 different things? Weapon damage % as in pct addition to the actual damage you do vs Weapon damage in the character sheet.
    Catches-the-Sun - Argonian Templar - Master Smith, Provisioner, Chemist & Tailor
    Valaren Arobone - Dunmer Flamewalker - Master Woodworker, Provisioner, Assassin

    It was working before. Weapon damage is, however, only a part of the calculation for weapon ability damage. So it was confusing. To give it a straight-up buff to weapon damage makes it simpler (if that's what it is - I haven't checked yet) and will be a nerf for most people when using weapon abilities. However it will also apply to basic attacks where it did not before. I would consider this a reasonable trade-off. The flat number of 21, however, is a bit odd. [snip]

    Hunding rage did work before but not the full amount due to diminishing returns.

    It depended what ability you used and how close you were on ability damage cap.
    Eg Uppercut was getting 8% buff while Executioner was getting 12% and Brawler 15% on Hunding Rage 18%. (Blue V6 2H weapon)

    With White V5 weapon against same mobs, it was doing close to 18%.
